Free parking initiative gets going in Kells this weekend

Published: Wed 16 May 2012, 4:57 PM

Businesses in Kells are expecting a major boost this weekend with the launch of a free parking initiative in the town. Kells Town Council is introducing free parking in Kells every Saturday from 12 noon to 3pm, starting this Saturday and continuing until 25th August. The purpose of the 'Keep It Kells' free parking initiative is to entice more visitors and customers into the town of Kells and to encourage people to take time to explore the many shops, enjoy a bite to eat or perhaps take a tour of the historical sights. The Kells and District Chamber of Commerce is positive towards this new initiative and, for the period of the free parking, businesses will have many 'Saturday' promotions and special offers for customers.
